Carbon has by definition 6 protons. However, its many isotopes can have anywhere from 2 neutrons to 16 neutrons, with 6 neutrons being the most common (~95% of all carbon). Carbon has by definition <b>6 protons</b>.
The atom has #6# #protons#, and #6# #neutrons#. You specified a carbon atom. By definition, the #C# atom has 6 protons, 6 positively charged nuclear particles, in its nucleus. You further specified the #^12C# isotope. There must be 6 neutrons, 6 neutrally charged, massive particles in its nucleus. If it's a carbon atom, the number of protons cannot change (why not?), but the number of neutrons in the nucleus can vary. #^13C#, and #^14C# isotopes are known. How many neutrons does each nuclide possess?
